Objectives of the Course

The aim of this course is to teach the proper use of Turkish in communication processes, its phonetic features, and the principles of stress and intonation within a theoretical framework, and to transform this knowledge into practice in a studio/workshop environment. The course aims to enable students both to critically analyze oral communication strategies used in visual communication design practices (presentation, advertising voice-over, podcasts, etc.) and to perform them practically.

Course Content

The course examines the theoretical foundations of language and diction, the phonetic structure of Turkish, and the causes of speech defects, while addressing voice-over strategies for news, advertising, and promotional texts through one hour of workshop practice.
